The Richards, Raff & Dunbar Memorial Home, located at 838 E. High St., Springfield, Ohio, is truly one of the most outstanding homes in the city, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The construction process took almost four years before being completed in 1888 as the personal home for American industrialist and two-term Ohio Governor Asa S. Bushnell.The magnificent mansion, which was designed by renowned architect R. H. Robertson, is said to be one of the finest examples of Richardsonian Romanesque architecture, and is a work of art in itself. Designed for graceful and elegant entertaining, the mansion features 30 thick walls made of stone that was quarried locally, seventeen different types of hand-carved hardwoods throughout, Tiffany stained glass, crystal chandeliers, a third-floor ballroom, a tile roof made from Southern Ohio clay, and an Italian marble fireplace in every room. Additionally, there is a caretakers home that is a smaller replica of the mansion, and a three-story stable on the grounds. The mansions interior and exterior have been kept in immaculate and all original condition.
